1 Getting Started

Charging the Battery

When charging the battery, the operating temperature should be in the range from 0°C to 45°C, ≤ 80% relative humidity.

1 Connect the supplied AC adapter to the back of the oscilloscope, and connect the adapter’s power cord to a suitable AC voltage source.

C A U T I O N

Use only the supplied AC adapter. Damage to the equipment could

result if an improper AC adapter is used.

 

 

 

 

You can use the oscilloscope while the battery is being charged.

 

If the battery charging indicator does not light

N O T E

 

 

If the batteries are discharged enough, there may not be enough charge for

 

internal circuitry to cause the battery charging indicator LED to light. In

 

this case, it can take up to about 20 minutes of charging before the

 

indicator will light.

 

 

 

Operating with the Automotive Power Adapter Cable

 

The N5429A 12V DC automotive adapter cable is for charging

 

and operating 6000A Series Option BAT battery-powered

 

oscilloscopes.

 

1 Connect the N5429A adapter cable to the back of the

 

oscilloscope, and connect the other end of the cable to a 12V

 

DC automotive power source.

 

Replacing the Battery

 

The oscilloscope battery is not user replaceable. You must

 

return the oscilloscope to Agilent for battery replacement.
